    My monitor changes arrow timing

    The best computer in my house has a monitor that makes the arrows on every song come early. It's a Samsung LCD. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    Use a different computer/monitor. FFR currently doesn't have custom syncing ability; you'd have to play StepMania for that.

      Uhh... How is that the monitor's problem? That sounds more like a processor/graphics card problem to me.

        Lol, I agree with Nightfirecat.

        You do not even need a monitor to use your computer. It just helps you see everything. So I highly doubt it's your monitor.

          Press the notes early?

            When I changed back to my old laptop after it got fixed, I noticed something - I SUCKED REALLY BAD!!! At first I thought it was my keyboard, but no. It was the screen! My PA sucked for about 1 week, but after that I got used to it.

            Conclusion: you'll get used to it.

              Lacking a visual output makes computing pretty useless for most people, especially for a rhythm game requiring visuals. Without intelligible output, computers nowadays would be worthless, even with pure DOS-like keyboard input. I don't get how that logic brings you to the conclusion that it's not his monitor.

              Oh, and the topic on hand - it's not the monitor. If anything, slow response times make the arrows appear "late". If it's desynching, it's a result of something else. Possibly your soundcard.

              Why would you put that in your signature? You've lost your signature rights for a month. (You'll get them back on March 10th, 2012.)

                could it maybe be similar to the guitar hero/hdtv lag problem?? i know you can't resync ffr but maybe you could just switch monitors around in your house and try that...

                could be completely wrong with that though
